Glade smell goods (94% savings)
Cash paid $1.78 ($0.78 was tax!) Regular retail price $28.05 for a 94% savings. On top of that, $4 in ExtraBucks printed in my receipt for use on my next purchase. 3 coupons were from newspapers and one was a cvs coupon from their machine.
Shopping prep-freebies
Thus week CVS is giving $4 EB when you buy $12 of glade products. I have $9 in coupons for these products. So I'll pay $3 (plus tax) and get $4 back in extra bucks. So in the end, they're going to pay me $1 to buy their products.
**correction** I just found 2 cvs coupons and one more $4 super market coupon. I may be able to buy all of this for $0! Will update when I get back.

Ebony Magazine P&G coupon insert
Same insert as described for Essence mag two days ago.
It's always a great to have two of each coupon because a lot of sales are buy one get one free (BOGO) or buy one get one half off (BOGO-1/2). Example: this coupon book has a coupon for $2 off CoverGirl NatureLux--a lip balm/tint/gloss hybrid that I love because it's so effortless that I don't even need a mirror. typical cost is $7.99/tube. CVS routinely puts CoverGirl on sale either BOGO, BOGO-1/2, or spend $15 get $5 ExtraBucks (EB) back. If it's BOGO, then the cost before coupons is $7.99 then use two $2 coupons bringing the price down to $3.99--that's less than $2 per tube. If it's EB back then the cost before coupons is $15.98, after coupons, 11.98. Then factor the $5 EB which brings the cost per tube down to around $3. Either scenario is well below half price of the retail value that other women pay.

Target beauty samples by mail
A month or so back I filled out an online for for free beauty samples from Target which arrived today. Yay!
Very pretty satin accessory bag contained the samples shown below including Ponds wet cleansing towelettes (chamomile and white tea) great for the ride home after the gym, or for my travel toiletries. Also included a booklet with $20 of *Target* coupons (this means I can double up using both a target coupon and a manufacturers coupon on a single item)

Cvs quickie $0.98
Dr Pepper Zero was a freebie coupon (up to $1.99. Some cashiers will hive you the max value and some will give you the actual price of the item. Today the item was on sale for $0.99 and the cashier made the coupon for $0.99)
Listerine Total Care Zero regular price $7.89, sale price $4.89, coupon for $2 off of one item.

October Essence Mag P&G Coupon insert
This month's essence magazine had $30+ of Proctor and Gamble. The good thing about these magazine inserts
is that they are often $1 off of one item, as opposed to newspaper coupons which are often $1 off of two items.
Coupons included:
$2 Clairol hair color - good to hold for a CVS BOGO (buy one get one free) sale with some extra bucks, may yield some freebies.
$1 one Always infinity which I love (Ladies, you know, right??)
$2 off Covergirl Naturelux which I love, love love. Sheer natural looking color, not too shiny, not gummy. Love it.
$1 off of one of each of the following: Olay body wash/bar, Herbal Essences or Aussie product, Bounty, Tide, Downy, Crest rinse, Crest toothpaste, Oral-B toothbrush, and more.
$0.75 off of Oral b floss --remember, coupons under $1 will double or (a few times a year) triple! So if this coupon triples, then its worth $2.25 off of a packet of floss. Your gums will love you for this one!
$10 off of Crest white strips
$3 off of Venus razor
